An exquisite apartment with a beautiful, rare garden in the heart of Saint Germain-des-Prés.

Within a handsome 'Hôtel Particulier' constructed in the mid-18th century, is this grand, 5-bedroom principal apartment of 857 sqm with 4.5-metre ceiling heights and views over a rare, private 310 sqm garden plus the addition of a useful 3-bedroom staff apartment.

Complete with original crown mouldings, open fireplaces and hand-painted frescos, this home was renovated by a globally renowned architect and interior designer in 2019. The property is totally hidden, completely private from the street, where solid double gates and a further security gate allow access to drive into the courtyard, where there are two private garages.

The classically proportioned and refined west-facing grand salon, south-facing library, and office overlook the expansive garden space, which is landscaped to enjoy throughout the year. The garden level, with its 4.5-metre barrel-vaulted ceilings, flagstone floors, exposed stone walls and open fireplace, provides a theatrical, atmospheric space for entertaining with a grand dining room and a superb kitchen designed by Boffi, complete with Gaggenau appliances and a walk-in fridge. There are extensive wine cellars, a secondary, more intimate dining room, plus a large 106 sqm open, flexible space, perfect for potential gym or spa and wellness facilities.

A further 201 sq m, two bedroom guest apartment is also available by separate negotiation.
